Parasite

In die middle of February, Donald Trump made fun of this year’s best picture. I watched Trump’s campaign lines. He could not believe that a South Korean film would win an American based movie award. He called for “great American movies” like Gone with the wind to win Oscars. So I wanted to see the South Korean film and see why and how it convinced the majority of the voters of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to do something that it has never done before: To give the best movie award to a foreign film.
